It’s supposed to be something you can have fun playing not something that teaches you history which is a subject that is incredibly boring for the most part.

did you find out about them because you played AoE?
and a civ nobody knows about can be super fun too
it just depends on the wacky strategy for the civ that you introduce`
Anyways, this is turning heated, so i think i’ll back away my rampaging hands from the keyboard 11

No, it was because they were named after their countries.
Would you know about Burgundians if you didnt play the Frank campaign?

No, it was as big as an average European country and it had 2 million population.

Ok maybe there are a couple exceptions.
Just imagine a Tarascan warrior with a Bronze chestplate and a thick fur cloack to one side, carrying a Copper-Silver alloy Two-handed Axe, chopping off the enemy Infantry limb from limb, with his tongue hanging out so he can taste the blood spraying from the wounds!
It sounds like Age of Empires material to me.

That part nearly made me throw up.
true, i’ll admit that i had a pretty trash example… but what about the Cumans!
European kingdoms were very small and sometimes pushed their borders when their neighbors went to war. Under that logic, should we add frisians, mercians, sardinians, armoricans, etc?
Were muiscans even as relevant as frisians or armoricans in the history of their regions? Who did muiscans fight agaisnt?

This has to be trolling, at this point. The Tarascan State was closer to Medieval levels of technology than the Aztecs or Mayans were. Only the Incas had more advanced weaponry, in the whole of the Americas.
It was a medieval state, not one from Antiquity.

Southern Muisca fought Northern Muisca, Sutagao, Caribs and Panche.
Muisca were relevant, they were the biggest power in that region and they had lots of gold.
